title: IMU
description: Reading from the IMU
---

## Usage

Here we use the IMU to read the orientation of the device, DA213B for example.

```ts
import {
    startIMU,
    startAccelerometer,
    DA213BDriver,
} from "@devicescript/drivers"

const driver = new DA213BDriver()
const acc = await startAccelerometer(driver, {})

acc.reading.subscribe(reading => {
    console.log(`x: ${reading[0]}, y: ${reading[0]}, z: ${reading[0]}`)
})
```
